Despite being at the other end of the continent, Huahinian forces had been sailing down the Atlantic ready for war. This was purely for territorial gains but gains which Huahin badly needed. Five Unity Class Super Carriers made up the bulk of the force, and they were backed up with smaller Aircraft Carriers, Destroyers, Amphibious Warfare Ships, and Submarines.

(OOC: Who are you invading, and can you post more specifics?)

ESN Riyadh, Atlantic Ocean

The Armada Class Frigate was on lone patrol in the middle of the Altantic Ocean. After the Elephanti sale of Mexico, the naval assets were ordered to Isla de Corisco, Elephantum's naval base in Equitorial Guinea, where they would learn of their reassignments. However, as the facility could not handle all the ships at once, many were on similar patrols in the Atlantic. A systems officer on this ship picked up something, then another something, and another something. A large fleet, five carriers, was moving through the area. Alerting the captain, they sent a message to Naval Command, informing them of the situation, and sent another message to the unknown fleet.

TO ELEPHANTI NAVAL COMMAND

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot IDED five nests, parentage questionable

(OOC: means Unknowns (WTF) found, five carriers of unknown nationality)

TO UNKNOWN FLEET
This is Elephanti Sultanate Navy Frigate Riyadh, please identify your nationality.

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot this is Hotel November Charly One. These ships belong to Huahin and are travelling through international waters

The Murmansk class submarine operating out of Barbados detected the large group of ships which moved through the water on its passive towed sonar. They were quite a distance away, but not too far. The sonar sounds indicated at least five massive ships and a lot smaller. It was almost too good to be true for the Captain. The many ships created a lot of cavity, enabling him to track them relatively easily, and if they were of a hostile nation, he could easily fire his deadly arsenal of 12 Mk-50 Mod 2 Barracuda lightweight ASW torpedoes, 30 Mk-68 Mod 1 Sjøorm heavy torpedoes, 18 UGM-84L Harpoon anti-shipping missiles and 12 UGM-203A Imsdal cruise missiles at them and escape relatively easily.

"Helmsman, come starboard to new heading one niner five. All ahead two thirds tactical."

The helmsman confirmed the orders and powered up the submarine to travel at 14 knots towards the group. The Murmansk class was rated to tactical silent at speeds up to 25 knots, so 14 knots wouldn't be heard. The pebblebed reactor powerplant, capable of powering the sub to 40 knots at most, was cooled with a close-circut system using freon, something which eliminated the need to use water from the outside to cool it, while a classified foam between the pressure hull and the outer hull ensured that no sounds were emitted from the inside, and that even active sonar from some distance away would have difficulties detecting them. As if that wasn't enough, the outer hull had been painted in a rubber-like substance, absorbing sonar pulses, further decreasing the risk of detection. The Murmansk class was virtually undetectable, silent and deadly, and to top that, it was a classified class of vessels. Not even October Alliance members knew of its existance.

The mission of the sub would be to creep up on the vessels, identify them and stalk them. It would remain passive untill either attacked or ordered to attack.

As they approached Montevideo, the order given for the initial pamphlette drop, which encouraged the local population to seek shelter and not to bear arms, with the assurance that they would not be harmed. The Amphibious Warfare ships were ready, as were the Hovercraft inside them. Also available were the newst Huahinian invention; small WiG (Wing in Ground-effect) fighters, which flew at high speeds just a few feet above the ground.

ooc: Not so fast, NR would be opposed to you invading south american territories, so you probably would have to fight with combined VCO naval forces off Brazil and the Carribean to get to where you were going. Neuvo Rica has a claim on these lands too...

The Empire, having a strong presence in South America, stands firm that should any allies of the Empire be attacked we will respond with the fullest might possible.

Varsolan corporations and the Boards in charge of the country remained active, watching and waiting for whatever would happen, momentous or not.

In light of these actions, the Empire will be activating ground forces and air forces along the Varsolan border. Should any invading army proceed across the border it will mean inevitable doom.

In the middle of the South Atlantic Ocean, roughly 180 nautical miles northeast of the Falkland Islands, the 16th Enterprise CVBG made its way through the waves. The group had no specific orders other than to patrol the South Atlantic, enabling it to be within relative close range to potential trouble spots in South America and the western African seaboard. The commander of the 16th CVBG knew of a submarine stalking a large naval unit which had been identified as Huahinian. The Norwegians weren't particularly fond of Huahin, having had many a quarrel with them in the past. Therefore it came as no surprise to the officers when the commander ordered the battlegroup to move to within striking range of Uruguay, just in case.

Heavily Encrypted Reply to Huahin


The airspace and airfields of the Divine Empire are open to Huahinian aircraft. If you wish, Kreynorian forces may also participate in the attack. We respectfully inquire whom you will be invading.

OOC - Now I'm confuzled. So Varsola is active and both the VCO and TOA are attacking me...and what is Cotland's constant problem with me?
Also, does anyone see a point in Varsola being part of EII if he barely contributes

IC - Sensing a heightened defence in Uruguay. The convoy ditched its offensive posture and sailed further down the Atlantic. Its target was the Falklands Islands which had a native British speaking population who did not deserve to belong in a nation with others such as the Argentinians. More and more missile submarines made their way down, from both the Pacific and Atlantic, although this would take time. However they carried a nuclear arsenal recently developed from information obtained from the Bjornayan Nuclear Institute which the Huahinians were partners of.
Also, back home, top priority was given to the immediate development of a sub-orbital bomber which would give Huahin the ability to bomb anywhere in the world in a matter of minutes.
The Huahinian Government also welcomes the decision of Kreynoria.

Message to Kreynoria - Uberencryption mark 10 super dooper strong Highlight to readWe're attacking Varsola, although I wish to avoid any contact with the EOL, although Cotland on their own will not present too much of a problem. This conflict could also provoke TOA and VCO in to open war, a war which we would profit from. Contact Azimeth and other Pacifinesians. I will repeat the most important point, avoid all conflict with Layateb

ooc: Not so fast, NR would be opposed to you invading south american territories, so you probably would have to fight with combined VCO naval forces off Brazil and the Carribean to get to where you were going. Neuvo Rica has a claim on these lands too...


ooc: Huahin is traveling through international waters to get to his destination. Your attack would be an unprovoked act of aggression. Just making that clear...

EDIT: No I don't see any point in Varsola staying here, unless he/she starts making some more regular and significant contributions.

Varsola is within the bounds of the charter so I cannot take administrative action against him, sorry.

OOC:Huahin, you've got me all wrong.

Just because I don't reply to all RP's doesn't mean I don't read them; that's the other type of activity, not participating, but paying attention.

I don't have the time to post on every topic, but I do have the time to skim/get the main idea of each.

~Vars'~

News of the Pacifinesian events have been unable to reach Azimethian ears because of the current civil war. Once King Hofstria can retake his rightful throne, he will make sure that all Azimethian military personnel still loyal to Azimeth be put on full alert.

As the fleet reached the Falklands, they began to broadcast messages to the local English speaking population, reassuring them that liberation had come.
The main Carrier group met a smaller fleet composed of missile and hunter submarines at a set RVP. The local Varsolan positions were assessed, and midget submarines were launched to sabotage the port at Port Stanley, whilst Special Forces from the Marines covertly landed on the beaches.

OOC: You'd need a bigger, more convincing RP than that to land anyone on a beach thats probably well defended and monitored, and possibly mined.

Also, attacking Varsola would be a bad move on your part methinks.

OOC - I think due to his MASSIVE participation in EII, I have the moral high ground.
IC

The 1st Btn of the HSBOE (Huahinian Special Boat Operations Executive) landed on the beach during high tide. Quickly, and under the cover of the darkness, they hid their canoes. Local troops were low and morale, and soon to be low on personne. Corporal Krys Stephens approached the first Guard with murderous intent. Before the Guard drew another breath, a knife had been thrust through the bottom of his jaw, through his skull, and into his brain. At this same moment a hand was placed over his mouth so that he silently fell to the floor with out making a sound. His uniform and equipment was stolen whilst his body was hidden. They saw a guardhouse, with three men in it. Obviously they would soon realise one of their men was missing, and raise the alarm, so urgent action was needed. Without making a sound, they crept up, and as they got closer, they noticed a communications cable coming from the back. A simple cut was all that was needed. One of the soldiers was chosed to wear the uniform stolen from the guards. The blood on the shirt would create the perfect opportunity. The "guard" stumbled through the door of the guardhouse, face first to avoid being uncovered. The other guards rushed towards him, to check him, but little did they realise that he was holding a flashbang. The moment it went off the other troops rushed in to the building and immediatly neutralised the threat. Now they would set up the decoy for the main attack. They would send out fake signals to all other Varsolan forces on the base, indicating an attack on thenorth of the island.

Meanwhile, at Port Stanley, the Midget Submarines and their divers set to work clearing any mines around the Port, and placing C4 explosives on the harbour wall.

OOC: I warned you. If Varsola hasn't dissappeared, which I don't think he has, he will be back. He has freinds you know. People I doubt you'd want to deal with.

One of the circling ME-10C Dagger AEW aircraft monitoring the situation picked up the radio chatter from the Falklands. The 16th Enterprise CVBG had been replaced by the 25th Enterprise CVBG which maintained the position of the 16th 180 nautical miles northeast of the Falklands, trailing the Huahinian fleet. Now, the provocation they had eagerly awaited had arrived. The Norwegians had decided that they would assist the Varsolans in the defense against Huahin, partially because they didn't like, trust or approve of the Huahinians, and partially because the Navy needed to prove that it was well equipped for a fight. The 25th Enterprise CVBG had been equipped with new ships and aircraft, and was an even more formidable foe than the 16th had been.

As if on que, the massive Enterprise class carrier turned up against the wind and increased speed to 37 knots, giving the aircraft it carried aboard sufficient wind underneath their wings to take off. The SH-60R Seahawk flew next to the carrier, ready to move in to save any unfortunate pilot who didn't manage to get his or her aircraft airborne, while the first four aircraft prepared to take to the skies. They were all A-5D Vigilante bombers, armed with 4 AIM-120D AMRAAMs, 4 AGM-158C JASSM-ER missiles and 12 GBU-12 250kg laser-guided bombs each. The planes were attached to the electro-magnetic catapult and sent on their way when the go-ahead from the bridge came, opening the four slots for the next four aircraft in the strike group. When completed, the strike group would consist of two F-14E Super Tomcats, each armed for air-to-air with 2 AIM-9X Sidewinders and 8 AIM-120D AMRAAMs, four A-5D Vigilantes, four F-39C Typhoons, each armed with 4 AIM-9X Sidewinders, 4 AIM-120D AMRAAMs and 5 AGM-84L Harpoon anti-shipping missiles, and an EA-5F Vigilante electronic warfare aircraft to jam everything within range. The EA-5F had powerful jammers and could deal with just about anything the Huahinians could throw at them.

While the eleven-ship formation climbed to 46,000 feet and cruised towards the Huahinians at 550 knots, the carrier launched two KA-3C Skywarrior refueling aircraft and four F-37G Razor fighters to be ready to assist the strike group with fuel and more missiles if they needed it. The intension of the Norwegians weren't to attack the Huahinians yet, just to let them know that they didn't like what was transpiring. The ME-10C had given the Norwegians the position of the Huahinian carrier, and the Norwegians intended to fly close by, within visual range to let them know that they were serious. All the missiles carried by the Norwegians were painted white, meaning they were the real deal.

In the meanwhile, a message was sent to the Varsolans.

ooc: Lay said specifically he would intervene, and considering the chaos going on right now and the fact your ally in Australia will be attacked anytime now I suggest you concentrate your forces elsewhere Huahin, although I do agree Varsola should be taking a more active role and at least check his bloody TGs.

The 1st Btn HSBOE had finished its mission to set up fake sensor readings and now that the timer had been set, they set about their next mission, the primary mission, which was the liberation of the Huahinian Ambassador to Varsola, Peter Lorimer, who had been abducted and presumed murdered over two weeks ago. However, Huahinian HUMINT elements had revealed that he had been abducted by rogue members of the Varsolan secret police. It was well known in many places how corrupt the Varsolan Gov't had become. Either corrupt or spineless, as they had shown in recent times no resolve against crime or corruption, or little will to do anything at all. The ambassador was located in a penal colony on the east the Island, where political activists and dissidents had been sent. The troops had been ordered to set up positions around the prision, and then proceed when the rest of the invasion had happened.

Meanwhile back at the fleet, tensions had heighted. They had been tracking the Norwegian forces that had been tracking the fleet for a while now. The main body of the fleet was composed of 10 Dominion class Aircraft Carriers which were the second biggest ships in the Huahian Navy. Each ship, when fully laden was 55,000 tons. Onboard were 60 F-2D Sea Typhoons, 1 E-2 Hawkeyes, 6 ASW S-3A/B Vikings, 4 Electronic warfare EA-6B Prowlers, as well as ten helicoptors which consisted mainly of Seak Kings operating in the SAR role, and Sea Lynxs. Onboard defences consisted of 4*30mm Goalkeeper close-in defence system which would make short work of any missiles which had made their way past the fleet's intricate electronic defences. Also stocked were Sea Dart SAMs. All in all, these ships were fiercesome beasts.

IC:
About 200 Miles off the Southernmost Island of Cape Verde, the 3rd Fleet was moving south-west, nearly parelleling Brazil which lay hundreds of miles to the West.

The 3rd Fleet was a few days behind the Norwegian Fleet that was trailing a Huahin Fleet somewhere off the Coast of the Falklands. Submarines from the 3rd Submarine Force were still in the area from a preliminary sweep down the South American coast some time ago.

If Huahin began any actions against Varsola the COH Fleet would turn their ships into driftwood long before anything could get under way.

OOC: Huahin, I suggest you don't take this further, just freindly advice dude.

OOC: Huahin, it seems you're in over your head. I think a withdrawal might be best. It will be some time before I can get any forces to South America, and even so, I am almost completely certain that the Pacifinesia Alliance will be no match for TOA in total war.

Thirty thousand feet above the Pacific ocean, a formation of 3 Lu-25 jet fighters and a Tu-22MP tactical reconessance airfract specially equiped for passive, long range reconessance gathering in addition to common use sensors, were making steady flight just outside of Varsolan territorial waters. The name of the ship they were dispatched from was "Tigr V", an aicraft carrier from the Federation Fleet that was still stationed in the Pacific. They were the scouting group sent out to keep an eye on the situation that might have been prooven to be hazardous for the fleet as it developed. They were flying at subsonic speeds and the Tu-22MP was receiving a lot of data including on the position of Cottish naval unit as well as positions of Huahin forces, data was being gathered on everything about 200 kilometers inland as well. Should a need have risen it would only take several pressing of firing button for Russian missile boats to discharge their ammunitions and for Cottish or Huahin forces to be almost completely destroyed. However at this point there was no reason for the Federation to get involved. At this point they were only going to watch.

News of the war in South America has finally reached Azimethian shores. Yaeric, frustrated and unable to make his decision, will remain neutral in the conflict unless combat comes to the Australian shores. Despite the fact that Huahin is a major ally a loyal friend, and a memer of the Pacifinesian Alliance, whose code means that all nations must seek to a fellow ally's defense, the nation of Azimeth does not wish to be decimated by The October Alliance or its allies in a massive conventional holocaust.

If this mean excommunication from the Pacifinesian Alliance, so be it; but Azimeth will not have any part in total war with Norway, the Layarteban Empire or any nations inside of The October Alliance.

Intelligence on the Huahinian fleet indicated they used the Sea Dart (http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/europe/sea_dart.htm) SAM, an ancient design which had first entered service in the 1960s. The missile was IR guided, something the Norwegians could defeat easily with jammers and flares. The missiles the Norwegian planes carried, the AGM-158C JASSM-ER (http://www.designation-systems.net/dusrm/m-158.html), which had a range of more than 600 nautical miles. The bombers could be flying in the other direction and still fire it at the Huahinians and hit. However, the stealthy cruise missile wasn't intended for shipping targets, but rather ground targets. The close fly-by was merely a show of force, not an attack. However, if the Huahinians fired, their fleet would be sunk by the weaponry on the ships while the aircraft bugged out. They would make sure that they stayed well away from the 4,000 meter range of the 30mm Goalkeeper CIWS units the Huahinian ships employed.

The ME-10C picked up the aircraft on long-range radar, flying at 30,000 feet below Mach 1. They were quite a distance away from the Norwegians, but within range of the air defense missiles the escorts carried. All in all, the Norwegian ships carried a massive amount of weaponry ready for action, with more in the two ammunition vessels. If anyone tried anything against the ships, they would definately pay for it.

Azimeth I'm not going to kick you out. Usually I don't declare war right away, starting with sanctions and condemnations, and helping finance and supply an ally. Huahin is free to use my ports and airspace, but I cannot realistically expect to be able to help him directly in the invasion. However, if Huahin is seriously invaded, we will not hesitate to defend our ally.

The 11-ship formation was now 60 nautical miles away when they recieved new orders from the ME-10C Dagger. The majority of the aircraft were ordered to return to the carrier while the two F-14Es were ordered to go check out a few Russian-looking aircraft in the skirts of the AO. The pilots were a bit curious, but they obeyed the orders and removed themselves quickly from the Huahinians. The F-14Es climbed to 65,000 feet and kicked in the afterburner, taking them to more than twice the speed of sound. They had their radars on, alerting their presence to the entire South Atlantic. They didn't want a jumpy Russian fighterpilot to accidentally open fire on them, as they only intended to fly in formation with them, perhaps take a picture or two and wave at each other.

OOC: Pushka, before you start anything. That was normal procedure during the Cold War between US and USSR pilots. They'd fly close to each other, exchange signs and take pictures.

OOC: Yes, i know. The following post is from a first-person point of view of one of the Russian jet fighter pilots.

IC:

I started active service in the Navy as a fighter pilot, 2 years ago, and this incident above the Pacific ocean was the first time then i had a chance to protect my motherland in real life and not on the simulator. And so i did, i furfilled my sacred duty, and i did it well, i will not forget this day until i die.

The Cottish jet fighters were quickly coming down on us and that is then i saw him, a Cottish pilot, with the helmet, the mask, all that stuff. It was all a matter of built-in reactions. You might say that my opponent didn't see it coming, you might say that his hands were busy controlling the decline of his aircraft, but those are just excuses that don't matter, only thing that matters is that i was ready and he was not, and i won.

As he was quickly closing in on me, i stared him right in the face, i took my hand off the throttle and with every muscle in my arm my middle finger was propelled out of my clutched fist. And here we were, i was ready, and he was not, i won, and he lost. The moment has passed and so did the only chance he had to return the favor. That is the story of how I, Gregory Nikitovich Plutkov defended my motherland.

The RIO stared at the Russian pilot flipping them the bird and laughed like crazy. The pilot, busy manouvering his aircraft closely to the Russian fighter looked up for a second and saw it too, resulting in both men laughing.

"That fuckface is flipping us the bird." the RIO said, grinning while taking a picture of the Russian. "Smile."

"No shit. Let's rattle him a little." the pilot answered before he pulled the stick and throttle and pulled the F-14E into a position upside-down, over the Russian plane. The RIO looked up (or was it down?) at the Russian and flipped his own bird to the Russian while grinning inside the oxygen mask. He took another picture while the second F-14E manouvered up along the side of the Russian, also flipping the bird and taking a picture of the two planes in complicated manouver.

OOC: FYI those of you citing the TOA in this instance are mistaken. I personally pledged my support for Varsola and have not asked the TOA to intervene. If someone else did then that is them; however, this is not a TOA action. Our eighth clause states:

"Eighthly, the enemies each member-nation shall be the enemies of everyone. This does not go for the allies of each nation."

Therefore no one is under obligation to help me.

A Sea Typhoon patrol the area picked up a Russian plane on radar. Armed with a Meteor BVRAAM, which gave a no escape zone in excess of 150KM due to its Mach 4+ impact speed unlike the Fighter Bomber version back on the Ship, which carried the StormShadow Cruise missile with ultra low RCA which meant it was almost invisible to radar, the Fighter plane immediatly requested that the Russian plane withdraw from the area, or be shot down. The 30mm Aden Cannon installed in the nose would be more than sufficient to take down the Russian plane, but the missile was still the prefered choice. These were no normal Typhoons either. All Sea Typhoons had been upgraded with Thrust Vectoring, a change which would eventually be added to all Typhoons in military service with Huahin, which made the Sea Typhoon one of the most agile carrier borne fighter out there.

OOC: Cot you GodMod, lol.

IC:

Scouting Group Commander Major Sebirov: Having fun Plutkov? Over.

Plutkov: Yes, tovarish commandir. Over.

Sebirov: I see they did return the favor, oh well. Hrebov, spook em a little.

Hrebkov was flying the 3rd jet fighter in the group. He was sort of a legend amongst the Russian pilots, both Air Force and Navy. If not for his constant problems with authority he would have made a squadron commander a long time ago. But his fate was to be just a pilot, so he decided being the best at that.

Plutkov took several pictures of Norwegian pilots and broke off. Hrebkov sped up and took a position just infront of the nose of one of the F-14s. The F-14 pilot now had 3 choices, he could either slow down, change altitude or run into Hrebkov's plane's titanium ass. Hrebkov gave him time to do neither, he pulled on the controll stick, at the same time moved all the vector thrusters down and made a short burst with his afterburners. His plane made a 180 degree turn ending up just 30 centimeters above the Cottish plane. Hrebkov saw the surprised expression that was showing through even the pilot helmet, and then the flames from his afterburner burst hit the cockpit of the F-14, leaving a single spread out burn mark on top of it.

It was then that Sebirov received the message from the Huahin fighter.

Siberov: We are flying over international waters and within the boundaries of international airspace. We will not leave the area. I repeat we will not leave the area. Any attack on us will be viewed as a declaration of war against government of Russian Federation with all the consequences coming out of that. You are outnumbered and are in no position to make demands. I repeat we will not disengage. Over.

Since it was officially peace time between Norway and Russian Federation, and this was just a minor scouting mission Siberov was given enough authority to establish contact with Norwegians. He could speak Norwegian quite well, he completed 3 years of intelligence school only to have a turn around and taking 4 more years of navy pilot school instead.

Siberov: To Norwegian aircraft, this is Major Siberov of the Russian Federation VMS speaking. We have just received an ultimatum from the Huahin fighter, we are to either leave the area or be attacked. We will not leave the area as we are in the international airspace, that means that we might have to engage our weapons in defense against Huahin jet fighter. I am making this message so you wouldn't mistake our actions as an attack upon you. On a more personal note...heh...nice flying. Over.

OOC: Huahin Its not RCA its RCS and a missile moving at Mach 2 up will not be undetectable.

OOC - The A and S keys are next to each other on the "Qwerty" keyboard so please excuse my mistake.
Secondly, I never said my AAM was stealthy, merely that the Cruise missile on board the fighter bombers was. And it is.
Thirdly, how can you outnumber me and destroy me easily? I doubt that very much. You have a mere four planes in the area, and your fleet is in the Pacifc which is my stronghold. Think again before god modding.

The pilot in command of Hauk 2, the second F-14E Super Tomcat looked in horror and surprise as the Russian fighter started burning the plexi-glass canopy. That was enough for him to ease back a little with the throttle and decend a hundred feet, clearing the path for the second Russian fighter. He then increased speed a little again and placed himself next to the Russian fighter, showing off a bit. Meanwhile, the F-14E which was flying upside-down increased the distance and returned to formation with his wingman. The Russian message was alarming, but the Norwegians had shown that they were in the area and aware of the Russians, so their mission had been accomplished. The pilot in Hauk 1 answered the call from Major Siberov.

"Major Siberov, Russian VMS, this is Royal Norwegian Navy aircraft Hauk one. We copy your message and intentions." A short pause passed before a last comment came from Hauk 1. "Great flying yourself. It'd be a shame if we'd ever end up in a dogfight. Well, so long. Hauk flight leaving the area, over."

The pilot saluted the Russian pilot next to him before the two F-14s banked hard right, kicked in the afterburners and climbed quickly to 60,000 feet before heading for their carrier again. The close encounter with the Russians had been a successful one, and they had obtained quite a bit of useful information on the Russian aircraft and the capabilities of the aircraft and pilots.

IC:
The 3rd Fleet was now only a few days behind the Norwegian one, they were closing fast across the Atlantic.

Meanwhile, somewhere off the Coast of the Falklands a large number of Hirgizstanian subs were trailing the Huahin Fleet. The subs had picked up an open message broadcast to what they thought was a Russian plane in the area. The Sub Commanders were bemused by the message, it seemed Huahinian forces had actually threatened Russian forces, a faux-pas if there ever was one.

Almost immediately the subs had agreed to fire upon the Huahin Fleet if they launched missiles against Russian or Norwegian forces in the area.


OOC: Duly noted Lay, but I myself have a separate agreement with Varsola, thats why I'm here.

Huahin, don't be rash. You are woefully outnumbered and outgunned.

OOC - What makes me outnumbered by the Russians?

IC - A response was sent to the Russian.
"Check again. You are the one vastly outnumbered. You are currently in airspace above our fleet so vacate now, or face destruction."

OOC: Its not only Pushka who's about. Myself, Cotland and probably Lay are all interested parties, not to mention Varsola himself. You are indeed outnumbered.

OOC - The A and S keys are next to each other on the "Qwerty" keyboard so please excuse my mistake.
Secondly, I never said my AAM was stealthy, merely that the Cruise missile on board the fighter bombers was. And it is.
Thirdly, how can you outnumber me and destroy me easily? I doubt that very much. You have a mere four planes in the area, and your fleet is in the Pacifc which is my stronghold. Think again before god modding.

OOC: Buddy, i am not godmodding, thats usually what you do. Either way you have one Typhoon in the air i have 3 fighter planes that are better then it, yes i do outnumber you at this point. Secondly i am atleast 24-30 nautical miles away from Varsolan shoreline and thats there your fleet is. Thirdly, start RPing and drop the bull. If you want to attack me, then attack me and deal with consequences.

Siberov Responded to Huahin message.

Siberov: We are in international airspace, you have no right to order us to leave the area. We have not shown any signs of hostility towards you. Your unprovoked attack will result in a war with the Russian Federation.

OOC: I am not over you.

Oleg Kalmykov Russian Federation Vice-Minister of Foreign Affairs was sent to Huahin embassy in Voronej to get a straight answer from the Huahin side on the developing situation. Usually Oleg would speak formally in any situation, however this chaotic move from the side of Huahin demonstrated that speaking formally will not work, so he remembered his army days and spoke "casually".

Oleg: What the hell are you thinking? You have threatened to attack a scout party that neither posses a major threat to you nor has shown any intention of wanting hostilities. I demand an apology from the Huahin government for the actions of their military. If even one of our planes is fired upon that will mean a declaration of all out war, it would be near impossible for you to defend against us if we were your only opponents but there are 3 other nations that have expressed their desire to wage war upon you for your actions against Varsola. I would like you to contact the leader of your nation and tell him this. "Think before you act."

OOC: Buddy, i am not godmodding, thats usually what you do. Either way you have one Typhoon in the air i have 3 fighter planes that are better then it, yes i do outnumber you at this point. Secondly i am atleast 24-30 nautical miles away from Varsolan shoreline and thats there your fleet is. Thirdly, start RPing and drop the bull. If you want to attack me, then attack me and deal with consequences.
Listen, Buddy, I have a Sea Typhoon patrol, not just one, in fact, there's four, and I have almost three hundred on ships waiting for you. Where is your proof that your planes are better than mine? You don't have any proof. If you want to compare the RL Typhoon upon which mine is based, then I think you'll find it beats any RL Russian fighter hands down everytime.
You stated your fleet is in the Pacific, and in any case, what makes it bigger than mine?
I can see why everyone else has a problem with you.

OOC: Its not only Pushka who's about. Myself, Cotland and probably Lay are all interested parties, not to mention Varsola himself. You are indeed outnumbered.
Do you have msn because I feel there are somethings we must discuss.

OOC:Currently VERY busy, people, so please calm down.

Do you mind if I get a good IC post up by tomorrow? That's the earliest I ca, so, sorry.

Depends. I kinda don't want to go to war with you if you're actually going to be here, because I'm not that kind of nation, which is why I brought in the idea of your nation having problems with corruption and rogue elements, so I was hoping that if you came back, then we could reach a compromise.

OOC: My planes are better then yours there is no question about it. And i am not even going to talk about Typhoon vs. Russian planes, only thing i would say is you don't know what you are talking about. However if you want to discuss this on Lay's forum then sure. Third of all, you never stated that there were 4 Typhoons in the air, all you said was that there was a Typhoon so i assumed it was one.

No, not everyone has a problem with me, with most people we have our moments but we are mostly cool. You on the other hand are the poorest RPer i have seen on EII so far, like then you entered my airspace and somehow ended up in Voronej without being shot down. Stop godmoding, stop making BS moves, and start RPing.

I didn't make a move to start a bloody war with you, what i did is called scouting, i am in international airspace and never made a threat against you. Why the hell are you threatening me? Wise up, god dammit. Either way, this OOC discussion is over. You start godmoding like you did before and i'll ignore you and so will everyone else.

OOC: Remember Decree 14.... take the OOC bullshit to Lays forums and keep this thread for RPing. That goes for both of you!

The two F-14Es returned to the carrier and lined up for refuelling from the circling KA-3C Skywarrior refueling aircraft. After a few moments, the tanks of both the F-14s were topped and they entered a standard CAP over their carrier battlegroup, keeping the sky clear of fighters. If this thing turned hot, the Norwegians would only fire in self-defense.

OOC: Huahin, can you try to register with Lay's forums soon? We have a private Pacfinesia forum that I can give you access to if you sign up.

Wow how great. Except your outnumbered. I'm in the Atlantic dumbass. That's where the Falklands are. Have you ever seen a Typhoon? I sure as hell have, and I sure as hell know what I'm talking about. Want a little proof? A study carried about DERA (now QinetiQ and DSTL) proved that for ever one Typhoon lost, 4.5 Su-35s were shot down. And my Typhoons are much advanced versions of the ones the RL RAF uses.

Fleet currently in the South Atlantic:

10 Dominion Class Carriers each holding:
60 Sea Typhoons, 1 AWAC E-2 Hawkeye, 6 ASW S-3A/B Vikings, 4 Electronic EA-6B Prowlers
2 SAR Sea Kings, 4 ASW Sea Lynxs, 6 Chinooks.

50 Type 45 Destroyers each holding 1 ASW Sea Lynx

100 Seawolf Class SSNs

100 La Fayette Class Frigates each holding 1 ASW Sea Lynx

5 Visby Class Corvettes

And various support ships.

ooc: take chitter-chatter here -> http://theforsakenoutlaw.com/phpBB2/index.php

OOC: My fleet can pass below South America and be in the Atlantic Easy. Thats all i am going to say here, the rest should be taken to Lay's forum. Just a sidenote, Lu-25 is not a Russian plane. Anyways, stop whining and start RPing you want to start a war for no reason at all go ahead, but then deal with consequences.

OOC: Basically what I gather is Pushka & Cotland are playing around in the air, flipping each other off. Huahin landed on the Falklands. Varsola is currently in line to respond to that and will when he says he will. Did I miss anything?

FYI - Cotland, D14 only controls the main thread. I have no say nor do I wish to exercise say on the threads of others. If you want to take it to the forums I am sure everyone would appreciate it but it is of your own choice. D14 has no control over threads other than the main thread.

As the Huahinians landed in the Falklands and an international coalition reared up, the Empire warily looked over the situation. It had pledged its support in favor of the Varsolian government in the event of any Russian or other invasion, especially one so close to home. However, in light of the massivity of the growing coalition, the role of the Empire was going to be, at best, minimal. Currently, the war was in the Falklands, far from the Empire. If it waged northward it could come within mere feet of the borders. Any refugees would certainly flee towards the Empire and that was something that need not happen. The Empire was in no position to take on refugees nor was it in a position to house them for any period of time, it wasn't part of its "mission," so to speak.

Sailing around in the Atlantic were several battlegroups, most notably an Amphibious Assault Ready Group. The AARG was about a day away from the Falklands and would be moving at sixteen knots towards the Falklands in an effort to come on station in time to assist the Varsolian government, if it were even needed.

It's kind of like the customers at HD I have that look at the price tag and still ask how much it costs.

OOC: LMAO, I worked in a HD type store a few years back. Same sorta stuff. They'd pick up like 2 inch nails, and then ask what size they are.

Do you have dollar stores in USA? Because we have stores where everything is £1, but some people (certainly not me :p ) think its funny to ask the shop assistants what the price of things are.

We have them. Usually those who don't speak English work in the dollar stores because they are placed in the particularly poor areas of town on purpose. No, these people that ask aren't fucking with me, they are genuinely that stupid. You should see how many people don't realize either on the label that it says how much square foot comes in a product (I sell flooring) and yet they still ask and don't get me started on how many people are too fucking stupid to calculate area (Length x Width shitheels).

OOC: Hey Huahin do you mind making an IC responce while you are around here?

OOC - No.


Sorry to be rude but I'm just waiting for a few Telegrams first.

OOC: Aight.

A few hundred kilometers to the South of the Falklands, six Squornshelan vessels were slowly making their way northward. All but one of the ships were damaged in some way, but there was one of them in particularly bad shape. The Prefect class destroyer SNS Watchman had come out much the worse for wear in the Antarctic rebellion. She had been siezed by rebels and the other Squornshelan forces had to attack her. The 130mm turret on the bow of the ship was destroyed, and she had taken hit midships from a Mk-50 aerial torpedo. In addition to this, she sported several impact scars from the 120mm cannons of the three Suntiger class destroyers that were accompanying her. Those destroyers themselves bore scars from the Watchman's cannon and that of her sister ship, the Guardian the Guardian's cannon had also been destroyed in the fight, but she had been able to avoid the torpedoes. The only undamaged vessel present was a Xaxis class diesel/electric attack submarine, the SNS Chalesm.

The whole formation crept slowly along at just over 10 knots, broadcasting their position from time to time, waiting for their rendezvous with a Huahin support vessel.

The Huahinian Support ship arrived, along with a flotilla of smaller ships, including a hospital ship, ready to treat any injured. The giant support ship was ready to receive futher orders from the Squornshelan Officers in charge of this operation. The SNS Watchman was in pretty bad shape, and was in need of urgent attention, attention which made the Huahinians put aside the growing Russian menace.

OOC: You still haven't told me why i am a menace to you then all i did was send a scouting group and my fleet was stationary far away from there you were.

The day had passed and now, sitting 28 nautical miles off shore, the AARG group was ready. Their fighter aircraft were up providing CAP as their powerful AEGIS-type radars scanned everything for hundreds of miles. If it was secure enough, they would move closer to begin bombardment of the island, but, for right now, they were there just to observe. If it were necessary for the Empire to get involved they would and they would have the capacity to blanket the Falklands under impressive firepower for hours upon hours.
